It's Wimbledon.
I'm on center Court.
The Queen is gracing the championships with her super VIP presence, after 33 years away.
Today it was more than imperative that I find the best golden oldie that my wardrobe's back catalogue
has to offer. With another scorchio day on the cards, I wanted something loose-fitting, flowing and bright. This morning I dug out a vintage maxi that had not seen the light of day for a good three years. I don't know why because i'm totally smitten!
Probs should have taken the photo before my make-up melted and before I filled my bladder with champers...but you get the gist!
The best bit.
I heart the open criss-cross back - obvs the black strap is a necessary supportive device, not part of it.
I bagged this beaut on Ebay when I was studying in the States [Top Tip: American Ebay has loads more to offer than its Brit counterpart]. It cost a just a few dollars and was worth every penny i'd say. Welcome back maxi!
P.S. Wimbledon was fab.
I'm really enjoying your rummage - what a pandora's box you have. I suppose that's why you need a wardrobe the size of a bedroom - oh, it was a bedroom once!!! Kiki xxx
ReplyDeleteThanks! It's amazing what you find and how regularly styles come back round. Hmm...would you be horrified if I told you that my wardrobe/ex-bedroom is now too small?! xxx
